The other day I said someone that I;m gonna finished my evening witha book,and response I got was very surprising. That not many people read,and if so,they not gonna tell they do. I;m confused,I thought it was a good think to read.Personally I love it.For last few weeks I managed to finished few books,presents from Christmas. I;m glad that it is one of my hobbies.It takes you away from everyday life,and is so relaxing.. What is your point of view on this one?

interesting topic. I think we should help those who can not read. However, the young kids on the streets usually do not have the patience to learn to read... Any ideas?

I am very proud of reading and I will tell anyone that I read. I have been reading for over 20 years and you rarely see me without a book in my hands or at least around me. I think it is great thing to be able to read and let your imagination soar along with the book. I don't understand why people think reading is something to be ashamed of or don't like it. It relaxes me and I enjoy it.
